Here is an urgent prayer item from David Gomez in Guatemala. Please feel free to pass it along to those who you know will pray!

PRAYER REQUEST:

(Summary translation from Spanish) On June 25 at the startup of two simultaneous EE clinics in Guatemala City —a Kids’ EE teacher training clinic and an EE Youth clinic— armed bandits entered the “Open Bible” host church, ordered everyone to lay on the floor and turn over their cell phones or be shot dead. The thieves also took the laptop computer belonging to Paola Gomez (the Kids’ EE organizer/teacher/facilitator), as well as the ministry’s video projector.

Most of the people present for the training were teenagers, and the atmosphere was very tense. However, we know that we have the joy of “stealing” away souls from the Devil who has come to rob. He who is with us in more powerful and will give us the victory in the next three days of the clinics.

We invite you to join with us in this great battle, confident of the Lord’s control and power, knowing that he is very present with us, and that all will turn out for the good.

In the all-powerful Christ who is Lord over all of heaven and earth,

David
